Alila Villas Uluwatu eco resort is located on a sloping hill in Bali’s Uluwatu region. This beautifully designed complex straddles a striking white limestone cliff and an arid savanna. The low slung buildings and scale mimic a small village.

Ok, just remember we warned you…… the design by WOHA is a vision of ecologically sound placement, form and materials which speak to a greater harmony. Indoor and outdoor spaces blend together as verandas, canopies, bridges and passages weave through the resort. The architects drew inspiration for the stone walled court yards from the local farmer’s buildings, and the overall design is a fusion of low-slung vernacular Indonesian architecture and modernism. The villas are placed to follow the natural contour of the gently sloping land, leaving much of the local vegetation and natural formations intact and providing each with a view of the Indian Ocean.
